I've seen a deer eat a bird. I dunno how it got one, if it was a chick that fell out of nest, or if the bird was dead, but the deer was munching on it, bones, feathers and all.
That road lies RINO land. Becoming the swamp.
Mass tranny fatigue cannot happen soon enough.
Could you explain this a bit more?
lead is actually less dense than lead by atomic weight, so I would argue, sometimes it's not what we add, but what we remove that makes the difference.
Holy terrible. Glad I stopped after season 2
Nice. They gonna try to make the US even more like China's walled off internet. Guaranteeing we lose the competition in many sectors.
How are they gonna market this monstrosity? She's going to look stupid in action/gameplay sequences, and it looks like corporate HR brand in the cut scenes. This might be a true flop. Sci-fi is already more niche than other genres.
I was somewhere between group 1 and 2. I didn't diagnose all of the problems, but I recognized that Rey didn't earn or deserve what she was given, and Han was done triple dirty. Also that it was almost beat for beat, A New Hope. At the time that was the greater sin to me. I remember thinking how incredibly safe and lazy that was. It was such a cowardly move from JJ. Then interview after interview seeing him hailed as a genius, laughable.
It doesn't fit for Sanderson though. He has F.U. money after that 30 million dollar+ Kickstarter. This has to be more of a degeneracy or 'please accept me' plea to the coastal shitlibs in mainstream publishing. He wants accolades from those people.
Super hero comics went through that system shock over the last 12 years. It went from some editors at Marvel and DC hiring some assistants, AKA work girlfriends from convention applicants. They had no canon or lore knowledge, didn't know shit about comic books, but were quasi cute compared to the meat locker of dudes at the office.
Fast forward to workplace culture hostage scenario, me too, and these lunatics hiring from old Twitter and Tumblr, versus the usual way comic book pros were farmed, and you've got an industry that all of a sudden hates it's customer patrons.
It's just the comic book industry is miniscule in revenue compared to the game industry. This coup on AAA studios is like their Pearl Harbor. They are celebrating punching gamers in the nose, but it's only going to last a metaphorical weekend in the grand scheme of things. Motivating gamers to cause a real crash this time. Pyrrhic victory.
The don't like gamers. Gamers want games that require talent to create.
They want consumers, consumers buy anything the brand asserts, but there are less consumers than gamers.
Gamers must be converted into consumers.
First gamers must be broken down, like boot camp or prison hierarchy. This means, gamers will be forced to play a female character that does not evoke the hetero-normative male gaze. No visual pleasure for hetero can be wrangled from the character.
Next, the modern character, this avatar of corporate Reddit, will be shown in adult situations. By proxy, the gamer will be getting pegged by the developers. This is to break down and emasculate the gamer. Once they are significantly broken in they can be transformed into a groomed consumer.
Because extra awareness and policing could cut into the writer's stash
Even if some Soros lobbies start throwing money at some rioters, it's too cold right now to have a wide-spread looting contagion. Saint Floyd pilgrimages happened in the Summer.
I'm not sure what the #resist is going to rally around yet. If they go too IDPOL they will have to rub shoulders with the pro-palestine crowd, and their Israeli backers wont pay for that. If they go full establishment, there simply isn't the enthusiasm. It might be an LGBTQ+PDF push like we've never seen before.
20000 years? Yet somehow you still live like scavenger dogs. If civilization didn't exist, they'd have nowhere to beg at. It boggles my mind. You give a bunch of whities, soveriegn pockets of land, immunity from surrounding local police and the Fed barely interacts with them? It really would be an amazing place. In contrast, somehow her 20000 years culture builds casinos and live in cargo containers.
Oh you don't gotta tell me. Also now that Israel is claiming the Golan Heights from Syria, just announced, which just by coincidence has billions of barrels of oil potential.
Somehow Israel is allowed to expand their borders in 3 directions, but we move heaven and Earth against Russia taking back the Russian speaking portion of UKR
Considering the guy who is taking over is Al Qaeida / ISIS... Assad was a few degrees less evil.
Yeah I didn't mind the Dabi vs family plot, it was just toooooooo dragged out. He was trying to juggle multiple threads, so they would line up in a climactic way, but it put too many critical moments on pause and too much repetition.
Their system is kind of close to the pulp story system we had in the West 80 years ago. You gotta deliver an amazing hook to ensnare readers at the newstand to pick up your folio. Cover art, sensational or fantasical headlines and/or loglines. In Japan, you gotta hook a reader to take your story onto the subway, when I would imagine the newstand competition is fierce.
The artists, who are most often the writer, design their characters first, think of a premise and just dive in. Not a lot of long term planning like an experienced or thoughtful writer would do for a serialized story.
I'm not a shipper, but the end of MHA was disappointing to me hehe. The whole 'this is how I became the greatest superhero' with the twist being 'for 10 minutes'. If you're going to do a Flowers for Algernon kinda take back, reduce how long it took Deku to 'get gud' so we get more time with the pinnacle action. Instead we got the worst of both worlds. Long investment in training for a tiny payout, then watch the hero immediately take on the mantle of has-been, here's a pity artifact. It is truly rare where a manga sticks the landing.
First bot contract came through! Bots are back on the menu at Bluesky! More evidence that they are gonna astroturf the shit out of AOC to run in 2028
More of them should have painted their prototypes red, so they would go faster.
Experts keep discovering shit that we've known since before the bronze age. Aphrodite got pussy passes all of the time, and the other goddesses fucking hated her.
Drugs is probably a good guess. Also years of being in the Hollywood brain mashing machine, and surrounded by people doing the same infantilism shit.
I didn't think of that movie as a musical, but it kind of is. Good movie despite Clooney being too corny.
Yeah King is so egregious, it feels like a performance. He's got some filthy closets he doesn't want opened. The kid orgy at the end of IT probably shoulda been a hint for all of us, decades ago.
Yeah that whole office needs to be disbarred. If they wanna be lawyers again, do it in a different state, and go through the bar process. I bet without DEI/nepo help they wouldn't pass. Listening to Fani's speeches, she is extremely low IQ. Same with Wade. That question where you can see his brain cooking for a solid 15 seconds before he just says 'No.' hAhAHaha shit is gold
